The Biden Administration is once again unwilling to take responsibility.

In a stunning display of political theater, the Biden administration has attempted to place blame on former President Donald Trump for the recent downgrade in the United States’ long-term foreign-currency issuer default rating by Fitch. This move by the Biden administration has sparked widespread outrage and has exposed their desperate attempts to deflect responsibility for the nation’s economic woes.

According to an administration official, Fitch’s decision was primarily influenced by instability of governance during the Trump era, despite the administration’s efforts since 2020 to address the nation’s debt burden. However, this claim is nothing more than a shallow attempt to avoid accountability for the state of the economy under the Biden administration.

Fitch’s announcement on Tuesday cited a number of factors, including the erosion of governance, rising deficits, and tightening by the Federal Reserve. The agency also predicted that the U.S. economy would enter a mild recession in the fourth quarter. The U.S. Treasury Secretary, Janet Yellen, pushed back on Fitch’s move, stating that the rating agency was using outdated data and that conditions have improved under the Biden administration.

The Biden administration continues to shirk responsibility for the nation’s economic woes. Instead, they choose to focus on the past and attempt to deflect blame onto their political opponents. This approach is not only irresponsible, but it is also detrimental to the nation’s economic stability and prosperity.

It is high time for the Biden administration to take ownership of the current state of the economy and begin working towards real solutions to the nation’s challenges. By placing blame on others and avoiding accountability, they are only serving to further destabilize an already fragile economy and worsen the standard of living of hardworking Americans.

The Biden administration’s attempt to shift blame onto former President Trump and the Jan. 6 riots is nothing but a desperate attempt to deflect responsibility for the nation’s credit rating downgrade. It is time for the administration to accept responsibility for its failures, take a step back, assess the current state of the economy, and start working towards real solutions to the challenges faced by the American people. Only then can the nation move forward towards economic stability and prosperity.
